Were there Frisian Vikings on the Faroe Islands?

In combination with the release of Baldrs Draumar's new album Njord, I'll be exploring the various sagas, songs and stories of Faroese folklore about the pagan Frisians who settled in the Faroe Islands and maintained a distinct identity as heathen warriors and raiders for several centuries.

I'd like to thank my father for helping me by filming me during our visit to the Faroe Islands in August of 2020.

Hi! If you enjoyed this video and want to find out more about, or perhaps even learn to speak Frisian, why not check out "Frisian with Hilbert", a brand new channel that aims to do just that:
